Finding the right angle for taking a picture

I have been trying to take a good picture of my car at a good angle . If someone can help me or direct me to another thread/website to help me take better pictures, It would be awesome.



Here is what I did yesterday:

And just for fun, not at any certain angle:

^Bugatti pic was taken at a parking meter in Huntington Beach^



Thank you, to anyone that replies!
 
Photography is all about using light to tell a story. Its an art to say the least. I'm short on creativity, so I usually find pictures I like and try to duplicate them.
 
Yakky- thanks!



AeroCleanse- just my failed attempts at a "cool" picture. and then I just threw in a Bugatti :drool:
 
Another good way to think about stuff is, how would the average person take a picture of their car, when I think that, I think of the pics of your car in the street.



After I think about what the "easy" shot would be, I go for something totally different. Good backgrounds also help, the street scene and lawn detract too much attention from the car, in fact, some could argue you were trying to show what your lawn looked like and a car happened to be there.
 
that Bugatti is sick!



Photography is a art so there is no real correct angle or not. It's form of expression from the person behind the camera.
 
Vtec92civic: yep, one of the perk of loving in Huntington beach are all the nice cars! So far 2 ferraris have visited my work lately :). And thanks. When I first posted this I was trying to figure out how to take a good picture, and now I realize that it is in the position, angle, lighting, and the "expression", as you said it.

Thank you everyone for your answers!
